Wisconsin Trip
A month ago we took our first family vacation with the 3 of us! We left for 4 days and drove about 5 hours north of Chicago to Door County Wisconsin, which is the Peninsula that sticks out into Lake Michigan with Green Bay on one side & the Lake on the other. We had a really lovely time & got some much needed rest & relaxation.
On the way up north we figured in several stops to allow Elliot a break from the car, especially since he is not very used to being in his car seat at all, let alone for hours at a time! We drove through Milwaukee, stopped at the delicious Alterra Coffee right near the lake, and saw the Art Museum by Calatrava. Another stop along the way was Two Rivers to visit the Hamilton Wood Type Museum.
We stayed in a hotel right by the lake & basically just spent time together. The weather was in the high 60s, which in our opinions is perfect. One afternoon we went out on Lake Michigan on a sailboat & now have the itch to take some sailing lessons - maybe next summer. Overall it was a great trip & fun to visit a new state!
